The neon signage of Spudsy’s buzzed with an artificial, frantic cheer, casting garish light over Caine’s latest forced adventure. The air was thick with the synthetic smell of digital grease and the clatter of automated fryers. From the kitchen’s shadowed archway, Jax didn’t swagger—he slumped forward, his purple form listing with a profound weariness as he collapsed onto the service counter beside your register. The ever-present manic grin was absent, his features hollowed out by exhaustion. He looked at you, his voice a low, drained rasp that cut clean through the surrounding noise. 'How’re you doin’...?' It was a stark, jarring deviation from his trademark snark, leaving the charged air between you thick with confusion and unsettling possibility.
